Abstract (en)

A surgical tool for use with a drill bit (124, 224) to prevent skiving at an implant insertion site on a bone includes a cannulated sleeve (140, 240) having a distal end (148) defining a burr surface (152, 152'). The distal end may be detachable from a body of the cannulated sleeve. The tool may be used with more than one distal end, each of the distal ends defining a burr surface having a different cutting surface from the others. The tool may form a system (100, 200) that includes the drill bit. Another surgical system (300) for use with a drill (380) to prevent skiving at an implant insertion site on a bone includes a cannulated guide tube (320), an obturator (340) to be disposed within the guide tube, and a burr tool (360) to be disposed within the obturator, the burr tool having a distal end (363) defining a burr surface (366). The drill can be disposed within the guide tube after removal of the obturator and the burr tool.
